Jesus came to lay down His life for His friends (John 15:13), to give His life as a ransom for many (Matt 20:28). He came to serve (Mark 10:45). He came to call sinners to repentance (Mark 2:17). He came "not to do My own will, but the will of Him that sent Me" (John 6:38). He came to die for us (John 12:27). He came to glorify God (John 17:4). Jesus emptied Himself and took on the form of a servant (Php 2:7).
If we were actually Christ-followers, how different would we look in contrast to today's world?
Lots.
